Founded in 2007, Miro Tea originally bonded Ballard with artisan-quality black tea beverages. Now the wood-polished shop offers an assortment of teas, latte-like brews, and American- or French-inspired bites. Pair a cup of rooibos chai with a grilled apple and basil panini to combat the lunch break lethargy. And before you walk away from Miro Tea’s homey, mismatched furniture, pocket a macaron or two for later.
